This FM 2015 player profile of Gabriel Barbosa shows the complete forward, this kid has everything, speed, dribbling, finishing and an eye for the assist. Starting the game with good CA is always a bonus and Gabriel can certainly score from the get go. In my test save Barbosa developed scary all round ability, the majority of his mentals reached a minimum of 15, while finishing, dribbling, passing, technique all hit minimum 16. With lightening acceleration and agility this kids got the lot.

I couldn’t pin down Barbosa’s best role, he could do many so pick based on your team and what is required in your system. £8 million would be a bargain, unfortunately you also need to pay the agent equaling a total of £24.25 million. I still think he’s well worth the investment.

I see.
Well, I already said this before. In FM 2014, Barbosa won’t join your team right away if you transfer him at the start of the game because of rules in Brazil. Because of that I want to make sure of that here.

A great shooter. His PA is 180. In my FM in Milan , so far in 150 matches 130 goals . Striker complete. European Golden Boy 2017 and winner of the FIFA Ballon d’Or 2019. He and Carlos (also PA 180 ) is the future stars of attack Brazil. Best striker (along with Carlos ) in the world in my career all over the FM 15 – and both play for one club :) Barbosa: Carlos:

I think his potential is flexible, I bought him in the last game a few seasons in for £30 mil after Wolfsburg poached him early on, he also suffered a few injuries. That in hindsight is maybe what ruined him for me. He’s more of a creative type than a prolific scorer. He’ll link your team together which makes him a good number 10 type player or even an attacking mid, but he was frustratingly inconsistent and I felt all the hype about him wasn’t warranted. Malcom on the other hand, 5 or 6 seasons in he’s scored 50+ goals… Read more »
